Apple has made the source code of iOS and macOS public

Both operating systems remained closed to all outsiders since its release, more than 10 years.

Apple has made public the source code of the XNU kernel, known as the “XNU is Not Unix”, which is used in operating systems iOS and macOS.

Now everyone will be able to download codes of the previously closed system of the website Gitgub.

Access to the source code of the kernel will allow developers to better understand how iOS and OS and how the software works with the core of the system. In addition, professionals will be able to use the data in their own projects.

In addition, third-party security professionals will be able to find on Apple products, bugs and vulnerabilities, making iOS and macOS should become more secure.

Interestingly, both operating systems remained closed to all outsiders since its release, more than 10 years.

The source code comes with a license Public Source License 2.0, which, as the developers noted, “is a pretty restrictive license.” Download the kernel source code iOS and macOS from GitHub.
